Nelda Jo Lively reports that Joel, one of her young male students in Albania, has been baptized in the Adriatic Sea.
On September 2, Jo said she had received an e-mail from Joel saying, “I am sending you some photos of my baptism and my cousins’ and sister’s also. First we had some training on baptism made by a Christian from New Zealand where she explained the reason why we get baptized, so we can begin a new life with Christ through the Holy Spirit.”
“We got baptized in the same sea where my mom and her brother got baptized 23 years ago. So together, with my cousins, we got baptized on the same day, which was very special.”
“I will go and do my lessons now and send them to you, because I am far behind with them.”
Nelda Jo says, “Joel is the young boy in the photo, and he is a really good WEI student! I sent all the scriptures about baptism to him, so he could make sure the New Zealand teacher taught the Bible facts about baptism. God be with you all. Love in Christ, Nelda Jo.”
